Limerick v Kilkenny - All Ireland Final 2022 - The Hego final

What’s the story with tickets ? Seems to be the mother and father of crowds going from Limerick or looking to go anyway.

The last year Kerry won the football in a year ending in 2 was 1962, when they beat a Connacht team in the final. This was the last year Kilkenny didn’t win the hurling in a year ending in 2.

Three of those times - in '72, '82 and '02, Kerry lost the final.

There’s a riding on the outcome of the hurling final for Kerry.

If we bring the performance on Sunday we will win. The KK young lads will be in “lose one to win one” territory.

There’ll be no issue with tickets. Anyone who wants one will get sorted.
The frequency of games, the price of ticket and associated costs of living crisis, along with promised good weather, will weed out a lot of neutrals and bandwagoners.

The auld lads with loads of pull aren’t going this time. They got their fix last 3 of 4 years.

Limerick could finish them for a generation

Limerick need to win Sunday as the only thing that’s left to throw at them by the likes of @peddlerscross and @Fagan_ODowd is “yerrah sure them boys could never beat Kilkenny in Croker”

The pressure on Limerick this Sunday is seismic.

A couple of low-fat All Ireland’s during Covid was never going to cut it when trying to earn the respect of @peddlerscross .

WHEN WE LOOK back on it years to come, this may go down as a defining victory for John Kiely’s young Limerick side.

Opening line. Journalist there got it right

That’s impressive from BC it has to be said.

It’ll be a sad way for Cody to finish up. But he will always have the win against Clare

Beating the almost Munster Champions was a fine achievement.

We’re in bonus territory after winning the Mackey Cup.
